How to Download Ebook Central eBooks from a Search Results List

You can download the entire content of any ebook to which we subscribe from any search results list by simply clicking on the download button to the right of the title (the icon with the down arrow):

When you click on this button, you will be prompted to log into your Hofstra account, if you are not already logged in. Once logged in, clicking on the download button will bring up the following screen:

Select the appropriate response and click Continue.

Depending on your device selection, you will then be prompted to install Adobe Digital Editions or BlueFire Reader (from google playstore or itunes) on your device if you haven't already. A link to the download page for these applications will be provided.

Once you have installed the suggested application, you can click on the link that says "Done with this step" to continue.

At that point, you will be able to proceed with saving the file to your device by clicking the Download Your Book button.

Instead of downloading the entire ebook from your results list, you can first click into any title's detail page and you will find options there for downloading the entire content or selected chapters.

Downloading the entire ebook would follow the same steps as described above. Clicking on the Chapter Download option, on the other hand, will first prompt you to select a citation style and a chapter title.

Once you do so and click the Continue button, you will see a "Creating PDF" dialog briefly, then you will see a button for opening the PDF. You can save the PDF to your device.
